With regard to the concept: here [this video] is a good starting point. After that, you can issue get requests to a port on your localhost with both programs running and 'catch' the request in the other program. Good luck!

Express is simple. I mentioned in my other post not to use a framework, but express is a node framework for setting up a server and it will make your routing easier.

Learn that after everything else is done imho

It looks as though you need the webcomponents-loader.js file. If you did not make this with node.js (you can learn it here [this video] ), you will need to find that file yourself, or install node.js. The following instructions will not help you learn how this works. I would HIGHLY recommend you watch the video link above to learn about node.js before you follow these instructions. If you have a folder on your computer with the HTML and JS files (and node.js on your computer) you can open a terminal on your computer, navigate to that folder in the terminal (cd folder_name etc...), and run npm init or sudo npm init , whichever works. Then to get a hold of that file, you will need to run npm i webc

This has been made by passing data to the server via the URL. If you are interested in passing data in through the server, you should learn node.js [this video] . With node.js you can run code based on the URL. The main idea is that this is somewhat server side (or node.js). Learning node.js will reveal some ways to solve this.
